Gorilla Skittelz 21.08.25

Atzengrow Week 1 – FastBuds Gorilla Zkittlez Auto And here we go with the Gorilla Zkittlez Auto. The seed popped up without any stress, and after a few days, it broke through the soil. Now, after the first week, it’s already standing strong, a small but fine start, with nice green leaves and a solid look. This looks like a stable run – we’re ready for it to really take off now. Your homies

Atzengrow Week 2 – FastBuds Gorilla Zkittlez Auto The second week is done and the Gorilla Zkittlez is really picking up speed. The leaves are getting bigger, a nice deep green, and overall she looks stronger. The stem is thickening up too, and she’s slowly stretching upwards. I’m being careful with watering, small amounts around the stem are enough. No nutrients have been added yet, the soil is covering the needs just fine. So far, everything is going smoothly, looks like a clean start. I’m curious to see how she develops in direct comparison to the Lemon Cherry Cookies – both definitely have potential. Your homies

She has gained significant size, the leaves are getting wider and denser, and the stem already looks sturdier. You can tell she’s slowly transitioning into the growth phase and getting ready to really kick it into high gear. I keep the watering consistent, small amounts regularly distributed, so the roots can continue to develop nicely. No nutrients are being used yet, the soil is still providing enough. Your homies

Atzengrow Week 4 – FastBuds Gorilla Zkittlez Auto The fourth week is over and the Gorilla Zkittlez has developed really well. The growth is picking up, the leaves are large, lush green, and she's standing strong in the pot. Overall, she looks very vibrant and has a nice structure. This week I decided to top her to promote a more even growth and more main branches. She handled the cut without any issues and still looks stable. I'm watering based on the finger test, and I'm also giving her Bio Grow with 1 ml/L to give her a little extra power now. So far, no issues, everything is running smoothly. If she keeps this up, she’s going to really take off in the coming weeks. Your homies

Atzengrow Week 5 – FastBuds Gorilla Zkittlez Auto The Gorilla Zkittlez has really taken off in week 5. After topping, it has developed many strong side branches and is now filling the pot nicely. The growth pattern is beautifully compact and bushy – just as expected. The leaves are a rich green and show no signs of stress. We're continuing with 1 ml/L Bio Grow, watering as needed (finger test), and it seems to be taking it perfectly. You can tell it's slowly pushing towards pre-flowering – the structure is right, the energy is there, and we're excited to see how it flips the switch in the coming days. Your buddies

Atzengrow Week 6 – FastBuds Gorilla Skittlez Auto The Gorilla Skittlez is showing its strongest side in week 6. After topping, it has developed a pronounced side branch structure and now stands wide and stable in the tent. The first signs of flowers are clearly visible, indicating a strong start to the flowering phase. The plant looks vigorous, the foliage is evenly green and shows no abnormalities. With 1 ml/L Bio Grow in the nutrient solution, it seems to be optimally supplied. The climate values also remain constant in the ideal range, ensuring even and healthy growth. All in all, the development is going according to plan so far, and the Gorilla Skittlez is well-prepared for the coming weeks. Your buddies

Atzengrow Gorilla Skittlez Auto – Week 7 (Flowering 2) The Gorilla Skittlez is now showing its full potential. The stretch is almost complete, and strong flower sites are popping up everywhere. The tops are growing evenly, the structure remains stable and open – ideal light management through training. I'm feeding with 1 ml/L Bio Grow + 1 ml/L Bio Bloom + 1 ml/L Top Max – she’s responding absolutely positively to it. The foliage is deep green, no deficiencies, no stress. The smell is slowly getting more intense: sweet-tropical, with a hint of citrus and a bit of spice in the background. Everything is stable in the climate – around 25 °C during the day, 21 °C at night, 55–60 % rH. From here on, it’s only forward: The buds are noticeably thickening, and you can already see the shine that will later contribute to the sticky phase. Your homies

Atzengrow Gorilla Skittlez Auto – Week 8 (Flowering 3) The Gorilla Skittlez has now fully entered the flowering phase. The buds are really packing on size – you can see dense, bright white pistils everywhere, and the first layers of trichomes are starting to become clearly visible. The stretch is complete, the structure remains stable and compact, with nicely distributed flower clusters all over the plant. Currently being fed with 1 ml/L Bio Grow + 1 ml/L Bio Bloom + 1 ml/L Top Max. She is reacting perfectly to it – no signs of over- or underfeeding, lush green leaves, strong stems, and healthy bud development. The smell in the tent is slowly getting more intense: fruity with a sweet, slightly earthy note. The humidity is consistently around 55%, daytime temperatures are about 23 °C, and nighttime temperatures are at 21 °C – right in the optimal range for even flower development. From here on, it really kicks off: the buds are densifying, trichome formation is visibly increasing, and the typical Gorilla frost is already making its appearance. This phase is crucial – now it’s all about a clean climate, patience, and consistent care.

Atzengrow Gorilla Skittlez Auto – Week 9 (Flowering 4) The Gorilla Skittlez is now in the middle of the main flowering stage and looks really strong. The buds are visibly thicker and starting to form their typical structure – compact, resinous, and with nicely standing white hairs. The trichomes are clearly increasing, and the shine on the flowers is already quite noticeable. I'm still feeding with 1 ml/L Bio Grow + 2 ml/L Bio Bloom + 1 ml/L Top Max, which she takes up without any issues. The foliage is healthy and stable, deep green with a slightly shiny surface – a clear sign that the nutrient supply is just right. The smell is getting more intense – sweet, slightly tropical with an earthy undertone, typical for the strain. The climate is running clean: 22 °C during the day, 20–21 °C at night with around 50–55% humidity. The structure remains nice and open, each flower is getting light, and the side branches are already carrying small but dense buds. From here on, we’re entering the hot phase – the next weeks will determine resin production and weight.

Atzengrow Gorilla Zkittlez Auto – Week 10 (Flowering Week 5) The Gorilla Zkittlez is really putting on weight now. The colas are noticeably swollen, and the buds are visibly densifying. The resin is building up evenly, and the first sugar leaves are starting to shimmer. It shows a strong structure with broad, dark leaves – classic for its genetics. Fertilization remains stable at 1 ml/L Bio Grow + 3 ml/L Bio Bloom + 1 ml/L Top Max. No signs of deficiency or over-fertilization; it’s reacting very balanced. Current climate values: Day 21 °C / Night 19–20 °C, humidity 50–56% – perfect for the mid-flower phase. In the coming weeks, the focus will clearly be on resin production and aroma – it’s going to get sticky now. The smell is already filling the room: sweet, fruity, with a slight diesel undertone – typical Gorilla Zkittlez.

Atzengrow Gorilla Zkittlez Auto – Week 11 (Flowering Week 6) The Gorilla Zkittlez is now fully in its element – big colas, dense resin layer, and slightly orange stigmas. The buds are growing compactly, and the structure remains stable despite the weight. The sweet-fruity Zkittlez smell is coming through stronger, with a slight earthy note from the Gorilla side. It continues to get 1 ml/L Bio Grow + 1 ml/L Bio Bloom + 3 ml/L Top Max, and it reacts perfectly to it. No over-fertilization, no deficiencies, just a slight reduction in nitrogen due to the higher Bloom ratio – just right for this phase. Climate values: 21 °C day / 19–20 °C night, humidity 50–55%. It has reached its final flowering stage – resin production is in full swing, trichomes are becoming milky, and the ripening process has started.

Atzengrow Gorilla Skittlez Auto – Week 12 (Flowering Week 7) The Gorilla Skittlez is clearly showing its typical stretch end this week: the buds are elongated but very well packed, with plenty of resin glands and solid tops. The main cola continues to reach upwards while the side branches are developing really nice satellite buds. The color shows ripeness: many orange stigmas, the buds are starting to "foxtail" slightly, but in a positive way – more surface area, more resin. The plant looks overall vibrant and stable, despite the advanced flowering stage. It's also running on 1 ml/L Bio Grow + 4 ml/L Bio Bloom + 4 ml/L Top Max. Minimal leaf discoloration in the lower areas is typical for week 12 and not an indicator of stress. Your values are also spot on: 21°C / 20°C, RH 53–56%. Trichomes: mostly milky, a few clear, a few amber – it still needs a bit more time, but the target range is getting closer. If the last days stay just as consistent, it’s going to be a strong, sticky Gorilla Skittlez harvest.

Atzengrow Gorilla Skittlez Auto – Week 13 (Flowering Week 8) The Gorilla Skittlez is now fully entering the ripening phase. The bud structure has become really stable – long, branched colas with many small, densely packed buds along the branches. The main colas are already significantly swollen, and the buds are starting to release that typical fruity-earthy Gorilla Skunk smell. In terms of color, you can see it's nearing the end: the upper buds look more compact, the trichomes are largely milky, and the first amber tips are appearing. The leaves are starting to turn slightly yellow at the bottom, which is completely normal – the plant is now pulling everything into the flowers. The structure is open, nicely breathable, perfect for the final phase. It continues to receive its setup with 1 ml/L Bio Grow + 4 ml/L Bio Bloom + 4 ml/L Top Max. It is responding steadily, without over-fertilization or stress. Temperature & RH are around 20 °C / 19 °C and 55% – ideal for curing the buds in the final rounds.

Atzengrow Gorilla Skittlez Auto – Week 13 (Flowering Week 9) The Gorilla Skittlez is now clearly entering its final ripening phase. The buds are becoming denser, stickier, and showing the first amber-colored trichomes. The colas are nice and compact, and even the lower side branches are visibly pushing out. The slight yellowing of the leaves is typical for late flowering – no deficiency, it’s just pulling the last reserves into the buds. It’s still being fed 1 ml/L Bio Grow + 4 ml/L Bio Bloom + 4 ml/L Top Max – no over-fertilization, no blockages. Climate: 21 °C day / 18–20 °C night, RH ~ 47–50 %. Perfect for the final phase, the buds remain firm and dry. The trichomes are mostly milky. A few tips are already turning amber – so clear signs that the final sprint has begun. If it continues to ripen like this, it’s about 1–2 weeks until harvest.

Atzengrow Gorilla Skittlez Auto – Week 14 (Flowering Week 9) The Gorilla Skittlez is now visibly approaching the finish line. The buds have really gained mass, hanging down nicely and are full of stacked calyxes. The color is slowly shifting into the ripe spectrum: light green to yellowish sugar leaves, first orange pistils, and clearly frosty tops. The typical Gorilla Zkittlez look is fully coming through – compact, "fat" flowers with an intense fruity gas profile. The leaves are showing slight yellow and autumn tones, absolutely normal for the final phase. The structure is completely hardened, and the side branches are holding the weight well. The trichomes appear mostly milky with some clear, hardly any amber – so exactly the phase where the last few days make the final difference. You’re now just giving her water, which is perfect: she’s pulling the last reserves from the leaves and maturing nicely. In short: end stacking completed, resin production at maximum, ripening process started – harvest is getting closer. If the trend continues, you’re just about at the optimal chop window.

Atzengrow Gorilla Zkittlez Auto – Week 12 (Flowering Week 7) The Gorilla Zkittlez is now clearly entering its final ripening phase. The buds have become noticeably denser and heavier, with many flowers beginning to reach their final volume. You can see that it is now working strongly towards ripening: The trichomes are increasingly milky, with some already appearing amber. The leaves are now showing the typical end-of-flower fading – vibrant yellow, especially in the outer areas. This is absolutely normal at this stage and indicates that the plant is mobilizing stored nutrients to finish developing the buds. The structure remains stable: several thick, compact colas with good resin coverage and a dense petal structure. The Zkittlez terpene profile is becoming stronger; you can notice that sweet, fruity scent, which will intensify as it continues to ripen. Temperature and humidity are stable, which is crucial at this stage to keep the flowers dry and firm. Now it’s just about the finishing touches – observing the trichomes, reducing water, and choosing the right harvest point depending on the desired effect. If it keeps this up, there are only 1–2 weeks left until perfect ripeness.

Atzengrow Gorilla Skittlez Auto – Week 17 (late flowering / final phase) The Gorilla Skittlez is clearly in the final ripening phase. The buds are fully developed, densely packed, and show a pronounced yellowing of the fan leaves. Growth has nearly stopped, and the plant is investing its last reserves into flower ripening. In the coming week, the focus will be solely on ripening and stress avoidance. No more nitrogen is needed. From now on, the plant can be watered exclusively with water. If mineral nutrients have been used so far, this week is ideal for transitioning to the flushing phase. Watering behavior should be slightly reduced. The substrate should dry out well between waterings, and waterlogging must be avoided at all costs. The climate should be kept stable, with moderate temperatures and low humidity to prevent mold. Care measures are limited to removing dead leaves. No more training, no defoliation. The trichomes should now be checked regularly – the goal is predominantly milky heads with some amber percentages. Conclusion: The Gorilla Skittlez is very close to harvest. The harvest window will likely open within the next one to two weeks.

Atzengrow Gorilla Zkittlez Auto – Late Flowering / Final Phase Week 18 Gorilla Zkittlez is clearly in the final phase and is now showing its full potential. The plant has developed several well-formed main colas that are evenly distributed and already need slight support due to their weight. The buds are compact, densely layered, and appear very resinous – a clear sign of successful flower development. The flower structure is typical for the genetics: robust, rather short internodes with strongly pronounced calyx clusters. The sugar leaves are visibly heavily frosted, while the pistils are mostly darkened and retracted. This indicates an advanced level of ripeness. Combined with the bud density, everything points to a solid final yield. The plant shows a clear natural fade: the fan leaves are predominantly yellowing, some are already dead. This does not seem stress-related, but is a clean sign that the nutrients have largely been mobilized and the plant is fully concentrating on flower ripening. The substrate appears dry and controlled, with no signs of waterlogging or overwatering. Structurally, the Gorilla Zkittlez stands stable, with an upright growth and well-woody stems. Despite the high bud mass, the stems remain sturdy, which speaks to good plant management during the growth and flowering phases. Overall, this Gorilla Zkittlez presents itself very homogeneously, ripe, and balanced. Now it’s just about fine-tuning: continue to monitor ripeness (trichomes), maintain stable humidity, and give the plant enough time to finish cleanly in the last days. A very strong run so far, indicating an aromatic and potent end product.

Atzengrow Gorilla Skittelz – Harvest Conclusion Gorilla Skittelz shows a predominantly compact flower structure in its final state, with clearly defined, well-grown buds. The main flowers are elongated and appear densely stacked, while smaller side buds look a bit looser. Color-wise, bright to medium green tones dominate, combined with a high proportion of orange, distinctly pronounced stigmas. Resin formation is visibly present, evenly covering the flowers, creating a slightly frosty surface. The stigmas are mostly fully colored and curled, confirming the completed ripening process. In the jar, a homogeneous overall appearance is evident with neatly trimmed buds and only minimal leaf remnants. Overall, Gorilla Skittelz presents itself as a stable, mature plant with solid bud density, pronounced stigma development, and even resin distribution in the final product. Your homies
